Well, the GOP has made huge gains recently...but Trent Lott may put it all in jeopardy. Have you heard about his remarks at Strom's birthday party?

To paraphrase: Mississippi voted for Strom when he ran for president and perhaps if he'd won we wouldn't have had all these problems over the years.

Problem is, Strom ran on a strictly segregationist ticket.
That @#%$ Lott...why can't he keep his mouth shut.

Trent's never been the sharpest knife in the drawer. He might as well have said, "All in all, we'd have been better off chopping our own cotton."

Thow another log on the fire Trent.

Timeout,

I'm just catching up on the thread and haven't had a chance to read other's input, but I have to say I think Trent Lott should resign his position after hearing/seeing his comments played out tonight on Fox (Hume's show). And, our Republicans in both the Senate and House should force him to resign.

His remarks DO NOT represent the Republican party nor do they represent Republicans across the US. He's been an embarrassment on numerous past occasions, but his statements regarding Thurmond and Thurmond's segregationist campaign for President, are totally reprehensible.

Not that I have an opinion on it, you understand.
